Miss Grand Calabria is an Italian regional female beauty pageant,[1][2][3] founded in 2019 by the director of Pubblistar 2000, Enzo Lamberto.[4] The winners of the contest represent the region of Calabria in the Miss Grand Italy national pageant.[1][2][5]
Since the foundation of the Miss Grand Italy pageant, Calabria candidates have never won the main title yet, and the placements they obtained remain unclarified due to a lack of summarized national competition results publicized by both regional and national organizers.
History[edit]
After the Miss Grand Italy director, Giuseppe Puzio, began franchising the competition licenses to local organizers in 2019, the franchise of Calabria was then purchased by a modeling agency named Pubblistar 2000, chaired by Enzo Lamberto,[4][6][7] who organized the first Miss Grand Calabria pageant on September 3, 2019, at the Lungomare Hotel, Reggio Calabria.[6] Later in 2021, Lamberto lost the license to a fashion consultant Massimo Spano of Focalizza Agency.[2][5][8][9]
From 2022 to 2023, the competition license belonged to Mimmo Luzzi,[10][11] who is also the organizer of another regional pageant named Miss Corigliano-Rossano.[12] It was then taken over by Giuseppe Caggegi in 2024.[13]
Several local auditions and contests were organized annually to determine the finalists for the Miss Grand Calabria pageant.[1][14][15]
